High Meadow Community School
About High Meadow Community School
High Meadow Community School is a popular choice among local families, and the numbers back that up. For the 2025/26 reception intake, the school received 82 applications for just 30 places, giving it an oversubscription ratio of 2.73. Of those, 34 families put it down as their first preference, and all 30 places went to first-preference applicants. That kind of demand suggests parents who get a place feel they’ve secured something worthwhile. The school itself is a state primary for mixed genders, ages 4 to 11, located in North Warwickshire. It has a nursery provision attached, which can be a practical bonus for families with younger siblings. With 197 pupils on roll against a capacity of 210, it’s running close to full, so the competition for places is genuine and something to factor into your planning.
